Rhapsody Streamnotes: Missing Records
Simply a list of record that at one point or another I tried looking
for and couldn't find. In theory it should help me keep from looking up
the same things over and over again. Periodically I'll try to clean up
this list, removing items that I subsequently found, as well as records
that subsequently found me, but I can't be expected to be very dilligent
about that.
* indicates a record that exists on Rhapsody but was unplayable.
+ indicates a record found elsewhere (although more often I either
didn't report such records or later scratched them, since the point is
less to monitor Rhapsody than to note what I thought important enough
to look for but didn't find).
